Easy Summer to Fall Makeup Look feat Alcone at Home

Hi Bellas,

Happy Tuesday! Today I'm following up on last Tuesday's post on how to transition your makeup from Summer to Fall. I gave you 3 easy tips last week to do so, and today i'm incorporating it into a tutorial. This look is in between summer and fall, still light feeling but incorporating deeper shades. Best yet, it's quick and easy to do. Check it out!

This look is a great balance between Summer lightweight makeup and Fall's vampy colors. I'm going to break it down for you in a step by step process for how I completed the look. It only took about 25 minutes for the entire full face. I hope you can pick up some tips for your new Fall look!

I used all Alcone at Home shadows and blushes made by the brand Il Makiage. Did you know that Francois Nars used Il Makiage in his kit before creating NARS? Cool right!

1) Apply #17, a matte nude, as your base color

2) Apply #7, a matte mid tone brown, as your crease transition shade

3) Apply #14, a shimmery tan, to your lid

4) Apply #16, a warm reddish brown, to your outer v

5) Apply #8, a dark chocolate brown, to deepen your outer v

6) Apply #15, a matte eggplant, to your lower lashline

7) Apply blush in #1, a matte mauve, to your cheeks

To finish off the eyes:

1) Line eyes with Alcone at Home Black Liquid Liner - nice fine tip for cat eyes, easy to use, and smudge-free. I like that it's got a super fine tip but it's not flimsy. It's my new go to liquid liner.

1) I'm testing out this hands-free palette from Da Blot. I used to mix my foundations and concealer and it works well!

2) I love my Prima Individual Lash Curler for stamping together my falsies and real lashes. This is a must-have tool for getting lifted lashes and open eyes - say good-bye to droopy lashes! Total kit and personal must-have.

1) To set my foundation I used my Laura Gellar Balance and Brighten in Tan. I've been neglecting this product and I've been missing out - it goes well with my darker tan for the summer and has a nice glow.

2) To contour I used my good old XL Milani Bronzer. I use the darker, matte side.
